Abstract: A height adjustable assembly includes features that allow the height of a frame member to be manually adjusted. A locking assembly may be used to fix the position of a linkage member relative to the frame member. The locking assembly includes a locking plate that engages a protruding portion. The locking plate rotates about an axis that is parallel with a longitudinal direction of the locking plate.

Abstract: A child car seat includes a seat base configured to hold a child seat carrier and a level indicator system. The level indicator system includes a housing coupled to the seat base, a pendulum having a top portion with an opening and movably coupled to the housing and configured to permit rotation about an axis, and one or more pair of sensors coupled to the housing on opposing sides of the opening. The sensors and opening configured such that a first sensor on one side of the opening is in communication with a second sensor on the other side of the opening when the opening is substantially aligned with the first and second sensors.

Abstract: A child car seat includes a seat base configured to hold a child seat carrier and a control console removably coupled to the seat base. The control console includes a user interface having at least one input and at least one output, circuitry configured to interface with other components of the child car seat, and a power source configured to provide power to the user interface.

Abstract: A child car seat includes a seat base configured to hold a child seat carrier and a ratchet system. The ratchet system includes a housing coupled to the seat base, a handle movably coupled to the housing, and a spindle movably coupled to the handle and to the housing. The spindle has a longitudinal slot configured to hold a belt. The ratchet system is configured to move the spindle with the handle in a first direction and to move the handle in a second direction without moving the spindle.

Abstract: A chair includes a base portion, and a seat portion supported by the base portion. The seat portion is configurable in at least two modes. In the first mode, the seat portion is raised to a highest level and includes a frame that is adapted to arrange the seat portion in an upright position. In the second mode, the seat portion is lowered to a level that is lower than the highest level.

Abstract: Provided is a sleep aid for use in reducing the risk of plagiocephaly including a cushion and a sleep position indicator. The cushion includes an elongate pad to accommodate a person in a reposed position such that the person extends along a longitudinal axis of the pad. The cushion also includes a casing surrounding the pad that has bottom and top panels. The sleep position indicator has an elongate dimension and is slideably supported by the cushion. A medial portion of the sleep position indicator is adapted to move transversely to the longitudinal axis within a slideway. The indicator may be moved between a first position where it visibly protrudes from a first side of the cushion to inform a first head orientation, and a second position where it visibly protrudes from a second side of the cushion to inform a second head orientation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a unitary seat cover for accommodating a child safety seat upon a vehicle seat having an adjustable upper protective panel and a lower protective panel which are integrally attached by a fold line forming a unitary elongated cover.

Abstract: A cushion for supporting an infant on a support surface includes a reticulated foam pad having a base surface and an upper surface that extends upwardly therefrom, the pad being fluid permeable. The cushion also includes a covering surrounding the pad that includes an upper layer constructed, at least partially, from a breathable polyester sandwich fabric confronting the upper surface whereby fluid introduced onto the covering permeates through the covering and through the pad to the support surface. The reticulated foam has a porosity of between 5 and 20 pores per cubic inch, thereby being sufficiently resilient to support the infant above the support surface and sufficiently permeable to allow fluid to move through the pad.

Abstract: An infant sleep positioner for supporting an infant upon a support surface, including a cushion that has an elongate pad of a selected size and configuration. The pad has a lower surface adapted to confront the support surface and an upper surface opposite the lower surface. The upper surface may be oriented at an acute angle with respect to the lower surface such that the upper surface is inclined relative to the support surface along a longitudinal axis extending between first and second end portions of the pad. The sleep positioner also includes a sleep position indicator including a flap that is movably attached relative to the cushion between a first position to inform a first position of the infant with respect to the infant sleep positioner, and a second position to inform a second position of the infant with respect to the infant sleep positioner.
